We finally made our trek to Fiji. We had been anticipating this trip for sometime. We left Salt Lake on Saturday night at 11:30 p.m. on September 27th. After a 10 1/2 hour flight, we arrived in Nadi, Fiji at 5:00 a.m.-Monday. Due to the time change and the length of the flight, we completely missed Sunday. Thanks to Jess' sleeping pills, I probably slept for about 6 hours. Matt, Jess, Sid and I were met by Mata, who took us to our first hotel: The Pearl. It was a long drive around the perimeter of the island. It took us over 2 hours on a windy road. It was different to drive on the other side of the road. The island was beautiful...just as one imagined.
I took these pictures at the hotel. Matt tried out some surfing on Monday. Sid and Jess also tried to do it for a moment. We just hung out at the hotel and tried to get used to the time change. The weather was perfect.
